June 29, 2016

The home where Grace Kelly grew up and accepted a marriage proposal from Prince Rainier III of Monaco in 1955 is on the market! The 4,000 square foot Colonial was built in 1935 by Kelly’s father, John “Jack” B. Kelly, a three-time Olympic gold medal-winning rower who became a prominent businessman and politician.
